ATLANTIC CITY - After a massively successful, sold-out run in 2025 that left over half a million fans "roaring with laughter," the We Them Ones Comedy Tour is coming back bigger and bolder in 2026.

BMN Entertainment has announced that comedy legend and NAACP Award-winning actor Mike Epps will take the helm as the tour's new headliner. The 36-city arena tour is set to make a highly anticipated stop at Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Saturday, May 2, 2026.

Epps, known for his iconic roles in Friday, Sparkle, and the hit Netflix show The Upshaw's, is stepping in to lead the powerhouse tour.

"We are about to hit the road and cut up. I’m bringing that real Friday energy every night," Epps said in the announcement. "We’ve been building something special with the We Them One’s tour and the fans have made it what it is. Now it’s time to turn it all the way up — more cities, more laughs, and a whole lotta love."

This is not just a one-man show. The tour, which has branded itself as a "movement" where stand-up meets social media culture, features a stacked, all-star lineup. The "comedian’s comedian," Tony T. Roberts, will host the evening.

The lineup also includes a rotating cast of comedy heavyweights and viral stars, including:

More surprise guests are also expected to be announced.
